13 September 2021

In its commitment to support regional development bodies and make Malawi a regional development hub, the Government of Malawi has granted the pan-African non-profit research and policy institute, the African Institute for Development Policy (AFIDEP) diplomatic status.  AFIDEP’s work focused on institutionalising a culture of routine evidence use in public policy formulation and implementation across Africa, and it has had a long-term partnership with various arms of the Malawi government.

The Minister of Foreign Affairs, Hon. Eisenhower Nduwa Mkaka, and AFIDEP Head of Malawi office, Prof. Nyovani Madise, signed the Order of Recognition under the Immunities and Privileges Act at a ceremony held at the Bingu Wa Mutharika International Convention Centre (BICC) on Monday, 13 September 2021.
